    I melt chocolate in the microwave. Easy peasy, super fast, and just as good as a bain marie.

    If the flower pot was also made of chocolate, that would've made it even better!

    I wish he told us what chocolate he was using.. :/ as there are so many shitty brands.. out there!

    eeesh, poisonous chamicals with your chocolate seems like a typical "don't do this at home".

    I would like to know why chocolate can be a trigger for a migraine or should i ask what part of the chocolate

    i like food as it naturally is ,unpretentious and simple, not a chemical concoction of crap.

    Can someone please name the wine Heston uses for his frozen wine-chocolate.

    watch out for bittering agents in the duster spray –  that'd make the chocolate taste awful !!

    Questions for all the people that have played with this recipe (the cake):

    Does the biscuit to butter ratio seem off? As in too little butter? Would graham cracker substitute the same amount?

    Would raspberries do a good job as an acidic substitute to passionfruit? I know they have an affinity as well?

    Last, and most curious. How important is the custard? Could I use custard powder or premade pudding?

    I normally experiment but this is an expensive and time consuming recipe, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Hey guys, I'm sorry but at 14:06 what does Heston say he adds as a final touch for the hot chocolate?! I can't quite understand as English is not my first language. Thanks to everyone that will reply! :)

    How much chocolate does he use for the ganache cake?
